Updating kitchen cabinets is an affordable way to improve the look of your home. Since complete kitchen remodeling can be expensive and time consuming, many people choose to simply improve the look of what they already have. We’ve provided several tips for updating kitchen cabinets the easy way below.

New hardware – Change the look of your entire kitchen with new cabinet hardware. By replacing your old hardware with a fresh new set, it will give a completely new look to the kitchen cabinets themselves. Don’t forget to pair your new hardware with new hinges too!

New doors – In most cases, cabinet doors wear out before the actual base cabinets. Why pay to replace the cabinets themselves when new doors may be all you need? Consider adding glass or raised panel doors to your existing cabinetry to give them a fresh new look.

Stylish extras – There are many different ways to spruce up your cabinetry with extras. Add molding to the top of the cabinets for a whole new look. Add built-in space savers such as sink-tilt trays, Lazy Susans, roll-out trays, and drawer dividers, to maximize cabinet space.

Most of us need all the available space provided in our kitchen Cabinets. That’s why it’s important to make use of the dead space that can be created when installing lower kitchen cabinets that must turn a corner. Turn this dead space into valuable storage space instead.

Kitchen Cabinet Options to Maximize Storage

Blind base and diagonal corner base cabinets are normally used when making a turn in your kitchen cabinet installation. Access to their interiors can often be awkward. Incorporate ideas like pull-out shelving or Lazy Susans to make these areas more functional.

Compartments on gliding systems can be installed to create a space for spices, kitchen utensils, or pots and pans.

Turn your kitchen cabinet dead space into a functional spot for storage in your kitchen. It doesn’t have to be one of the kitchen cabinets that serves no purpose.

Kitchen Cabinets with a Lazy Susan

We are probably most familiar with lazy susans being utilized on the table to make food more easily accessible by diners. However, they are also beneficial to use in kitchen cabinets to make items easier to see and reach.

Placement for Maximum Storage

The lazy susan is most often used as part of a base cabinet. The cabinet has two doors hinged together and is placed at a 90 degree angle. This allows maximum storage space in the cabinet. The lazy susan comes in several different styles so you can find one which best fits your needs.

Popular Styles of Lazy Susans

The two most popular styles are the pie cut and the half round. These types spin out and around once the cabinet door is opened. Use lazy susans for storing spices, cleaning solutions, pans, or any other items you access frequently. There is actually nothing lazy about the lazy susan. It makes the perfect functional and versatile addition to your kitchen cabinetry.
